| - Honestly, wow. I love this place - the decor, food, coffee, friendly staff all come together beautifully. What an oasis in the financial district.
Absolutely try their baked goods.
Maman serves up daily fruit tarts (usually later in the afternoon) beautifully made with flavours melding together perfectly. They're also not too sweet, have lots of fresh fruit and the presentation's on-point (peach blueberry almond tart, apple tart)! Usually the pound cakes are served up as samples. I prefer the orange cake and matcha ones - they're moist and flavourful. Oh, and Maman's chocochip cookie is anything but average: chunky, nutty (macadamias, almonds, and walnuts), with the right amount of chocolate chips - a worthy splurge (~$3.50) to satisfy that mid-afternoon sweet tooth ;)
On the subject of savoury food: if you're deciding which quiche to try, get the Ham and Cheese. Flavourful fluffiness abounds! You can make it a combo with one of Maman's salad (~$11.50).
Finally, bevvies: Lavender hot choco is delightful. Drip coffee is pretty dece! And their lattes are smooth though, I prefer Mos Mos. However, their coffee station is the cutest - well stocked utensil drawer and lovely containers for your choice between cream/milk/soymilk!
